Unstable & confusing

Frequent lockups to the white screen of death. Quirky interface and syncing not ideal with google calendars. Wish I could get my $ back but thats a lost cause too..

Desapointed

All the way. Im sure that they ment well but they just dont have it. Back to the drawing board guys. Ps: apple should install a refund policy cause Im thinking going on another platform and leave iphone cause Im tired to be stolen by apple for bad apps.

Just makes sense

I have to say that, after jumping around to many other gtd apps, the logic of the left coast logic apps is just better. Love the look - and the usability keeps improving. Highly recommended!

Does not work

Contrary to its marketing, it does not work with google cal. Will not sync, crashes all the time. Useless. I want my money back. Please do not get suckered into buying this.

I used to love this, now it does nothing but crash

I used this program for a couple of years when it first came out for my iPod touch, and loved it, but I was using it standalone (not synching with other calendars). Initially it was free, but then they split up the features and started to charge for it, and disable updating to the version I had, so I deleted it. When I got my most recent iPhone I stumbled across this app again and, remembering how much I loved it, downloaded it without hesitation despite the $9.99 price tag. Let me assure you that this was a big deal for me, since before this my limit on paying for apps was $0.99! It worked well for the first month or so, until my son inadvertently deleted it. Upon re-installing the app, it became useless. Worse than useless, it started wasting my time. Let me give you a few examples: If the program suggests a time for a task/event and you choose something different, it crashes. If you switch between views, the new view will be superimposed upon the last view. The only way to fix it is to reboot your phone. If you try to set the "home" time to overlap with "work" time, it crashes. If you try to create a "home" task/event during allocated "work" time, or vice versa, it crashes. If you successfully manage to create an event/task without crashing the app, dont try to edit/modify the event/task, or the app will then crash. Sometimes just opening the app will cause it to crash. i have uninstalled, rebooted, reinstalled, rebooted, tore my hair out, swore at my device, but nothing seems to be working. If they can fix this and return some semblance of stability to this once-great, now-garbage app, I will absolutely give it more stars, but it honestly does not deserve it. right now.

Doesnt Work that Well

Good Graphics, nice idea, but.. There are two options on this app, one can chooses to set a Task or an Event, the tasks dont work properly, they dont show on the right time slot in the so call Smartview, and in the Calendar dont show on the right day time or some times dont at all.. Waste of time, I tried to understand, and even with help from the support guys, didnt work..

Do not download

This app is not work the price! It continually crashes and is not as useful as the description may make you think. Do not download.

Expensive...but decent app

At 1200yen, its a tad expensive compared to other apps... But I do find it much easier to manage my time with this app compared to others Ive bought and tried.... So I give it 4 stars.

Monthview update!

An interesting app concept. The landscape week and month views both look great. Creating new appointments for future dates is a bit cumbersome though. Id prefer to be able to look at the monthview calendar, double tap a day, and get taken to a list of events and tasks for just that day, and then be able to add an appointment for that day with the correct duration of the event (you can add events or tasks from month and week view via quick add, but youre options are more limited, such as the duration of the event you can choose from are just thirty minutes, one hour, two hours, and I believe three hours as well <-- if memory serves me right). Duplicating events is not possible in month or week view, and its not fast in smartview if you dont know the date you want to make a duplicate for. Google sync can take a while in comparison to a couple other apps Ive tried. Left Coast Logic communicates a lot with SmartTime users, so I can only imagine that this app will eventually become much faster and easier to use with future updates. Three point five rounded up to a four. Its looking better and getting more usable with every update, but I wont be using it till duplicating appointments in monthview is possible, that or copy and paste options in monthview (even better), and I have more options in monthview (I can decide the duration of an event is four hours for example). I do most of my planning and scheduling from monthview.

Deception! Should not sell a product that functions so poorly.

This app moves tasks to events, entries from the day entered to another day, time entered to some other time, all at will with no correction but deleting and reentering. This is bad business. Ethical business demands a product at minimum -- minimum -- functions. This is a broken product. Waste of both precious time and money.

Rip-off

I bought SmartTime 4 and Smart Plans 4 today and neither would load on my iPod Touch. Only after much hair-pulling did I discover it requires iOS 4.0 and Apple doesnt support that on my original Touch. There wasnt a word on either product description about this serious software limitation. So how am I supposed to get a refund for software I cant use and both Apple and the manufacturer knew I couldnt use it? False advertising. Fraud.

Great concept....!

Ok. I think this is a great app.... What I would like to know is if there could be some way for me to: 1. Prioritize my to do list items 2. Quantify my time spent ( after work week is determined, time is calibrated at 100% and diminishes as to do items are entered) Make this possible and I would rate this app a 5. For Now Ill stay with a four.

Great isnt the word..

AWESOME!! This app is exactly what I expected from LCL .. Clean, intuitive, fluid feel and flow through all actions .. And very fun to use! The "smart solutions" by LCL are truly just that .. Developers that think like I do .. Making an app something fun to use .. AND the BEST organizational tool out there! I also have SmartPad for my iPad .. And it is no different! the BEST! *** BUY THIS APP *** you will LOVE it!! It is a BLAST to use .. AND .. it will help you organize and prioritize your life to help you find more time to do the things you really want to do! GET IT NOW! Ps .. The syncing set-up was incredibly easy .. With step by step interactive instruction right IN THE APP! It works FLAWLESSLY !!!

Just wasted $10.

Does not sync with iCal.

No sync with MobileMe

And wont sync with google calandar as well. Very buggy. Waste of money.

Used to work....now AWFUL

I was a SmartTime fanboy - now Im a SmartTime hater. This version 4.0.2 is soooooo stinkin buggy!! Please update, before I have to go find another Calendar app. The sad part is that this app had such potential, and is a beatiful looking interface. But beauty will never trump usability. Im a week from bailing. Issues: * Anytime I attempt to update the settings, the app crashes. * Anytime I attempt to add a task, the app crashes. * This morning, I went to look at the app, and the color settings had changed, along with every other setting. SO weird.... PLEEEASE update this app asap! I want to love it, I really do....

needs improvement

when you mark a task complete there is no way to undo this mark or even make a copy of the task to a new task. Other than this it has some good feature

Buggy!!!

I thought this would work for daily tasks and such, but every time i want to chang the settings between task/event i get a white screen after the change!!! is this Normal?????

What once was great.....

I USED to LOVE this app, but after the the sync issue they are having it is useless. The app crashes every time I try to sync. Super frustrating. The app worked just right for me prior to this last update!! I have written to ask for help, but no support yet! I would not buy this app now. Wait until the bugs get fixed.

Horrible

It doesnt sync and freezes. Whats the deal? Why not fix this? It *could* be great.
